To create the Access Requests policy, complete the following steps:
Click the Create New Policy (1) button located on the left side under the Policies title.
A pop-up screen will appear, prompting you to select which policy to create.
Select Access Requests(2) from the available list of policies.
Depending on the approval processes required for your workspaces, the following information needs to be specified:
Create the new policy name (1); depending on the type of Access Requests policy that will be created
Select the preferred approval process (2) from the available list:
Manager approval
Manager and admin approval

Alternatively, you can also create a new approval process if the above does not suit your workspaces' needs:
Click Create New (1); located under the approval process dropdown menu
Enter the name (2) of your new approval process
Select between the single or multiple-stage approval process (3):
1-stage process
2-stage process
3-stage process
Depending on whether you selected the single or multiple-stage process, you will need to complete the below information:
Select who approves the requested workspace (4):
Manager of Requester; you are also able to add additional information in case the requester has no manager by entering details in the section below

This can be set for the following workspaces:

Mail-Enabled Security Groups
Once you complete the above steps, click Save (2); this opens a pop-up stating that your policy has been successfully created.
The new policy can now be found in the list of all policies created in your environment.
The pop-up also allows clicking on Apply Policy and being taken to the Manage Policies screen directly.
To enforce the new policy, it will need to be applied to workspaces in your environment. Take a look at the Apply Access Requests article for instructions on how to apply your policy.
